Fomentation is a process of applying hot or moist substances to the body to ease pain.
 
Example: We apply hot water bags on our body parts which are paining. This is done because water has high specific heat capacity. So, it gives out large amount of heat when cooled down. This will keep the affected body part warmer for long period of time and help in easing the pain.
